PROCEDURE QUALIFICATION This procedure shall be demonstrated to the satisfaction of the AI and QA/QC section chief of client before use. When procedure qualification is specified, a change of a requirement in Table identified as an essential variable shall require re-qualification of the written procedure by demonstration. A change of a requirement identified as a nonessential variable from those specified within the written procedure shall require revision of, or an addendum to, the written procedure.

TECHNIQUE Applications Visual examination is generally used to determine such things as the surface condition of the part, alignment of mating surfaces, shape, or evidence of leaking. In addition, visual examination is used to determine a composite material's (translucent laminate) subsurface conditions. Direct Visual Examination Direct visual examination may usually be made when access is sufficient to place the eye within 600 of the surface to be examined and at an angle not less than 30. to the surface to be examined. Mirrors may be used to improve the angle of vision, and aids such as a magnifying lens may be used to assist examinations. Illumination (natural or supplemental white light) for The specific part, component, vessel, or section thereof, being examined is required. The minimum light intensity at the examination surface / site shall be 1000Lux. The light source, technique used, and light level verification is required to be demonstrated one time, document and maintained on file. Visual examination personnel shall have an annual visual examination to assure natural or corrected near distance acuity such that they are capable of reading standard J-1 letters on standard Jaeger test type charts for near vision or equivalent methods. Remote Visual Examination In some cases, remote visual examination may have to be substituted for direct examination. Remote visual examination may use mirrors such systems shall have a resolution capability at least equivalent to that obtainable by direct visual observation. Sequence of Visual examination 1) Identify the configuration drawing of part to be examined. 2) Establish the plan for the visual examination using checklist. 3) Determine the examination technique. 4) Prepare the necessary equipments, visual aids and measuring aids. 5) Preparation of surface. 6) Check the light intensity by using light meter with valid certificate on surface to examined. 7) Perform visual examination. 8) Evaluation. 9) Mark out the visual examination report. 10) Verify the visual examination result using checklist.

EVALUATION Symbols The following symbols are used in Table 1. a nominal throat thickness of the fillet weld (see also ISO 2553) b width of weld reinforcement d diameter of pore h height or width of imperfection I length of imperfection in longitudinal direction of the weld Ip length of projected or cross-section area s nominal butt weld thickness (see also ISO 2553) t wall or plate thickness (nominal size) wp width of the weld or width or height in case of fracture area z leg length of a fillet weld (see also ISO 2553) angle of weld toe fJ angle of angular misalignment Assessment imperfection Limits for Imperfections are given in Table 1. These limits apply to the finished weld and may also be applied 10 an intermediate stage of fabrication. If, for the detection of imperfections, a method other than macro examination is used, only those imperfections shall be considered which can be detected using a magnification equal to or less than tenfold. Excluded here from are cold laps (see Table 1, 1.5) and micro cracks (see Table 1, 2.2). Systematic imperfections are only permitted in quality level D, provided other requirements of Table 1 are fulfilled. A welded joint shall normally be assessed separately for each individual type of imperfection. Different types of imperfection. occurring at any cross-section of the joint, which weaken the cross section may need special consideration (see multiple imperfections), The limits for multiple imperfections (see Table 1) are only applicable for cases where the requirements for a single imperfection are not exceeded. Any two adjacent imperfections separated by a distance smaller than the major dimension of the smaller imperfection shall be considered as a single imperfection.
